To Hella, or not to Hella

Since my ballast to my hanabi kit blew out in 6 months, I have to either find a replacement or find a new kit. I am very weary about buying HID kits on ebay, but i was poking around and saw this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=36476


looks like a good item but how can i tell whether or not it is true Hella ballasts?


-Also- ebayers are selling seperate ballasts coming from Lexus, Audi, Nissan, etc which are all OEM. Will these be able to fit my current Hanabi 8000k setup to replace the ballast?


if anyone has 2k2-2k3 HID ballast they wanna sell me, let me know.


Also, if anyone can reach freddie let me know. i've called for two days and not a return call. What happened to his great customer service??

The ballast/harness seem to be hella. If not, that would be false advertising.

Dont expect the bulbs to be hella though, real hella bulbs dont come in 8000k.

yeah.. I was thinking the ballasts do look like Hella's but there is no way the bulbs are.. I doubt they make anything above 4300k. I think phillips is the only legit company who makes 6000k.
